'Application filed September 2-2, 1885. Serial No. 177,844. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, JAMES WEArHERs, a citizen of the United States, residing at Indianapolis, in the county of Marion and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in a Combined Anvil,Vise, and Drill, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.

My invention relates to improvements in combination-tools, and is designed to produce in a compact and convenient form a combined anvil, vise, and drill.

The improvement consists, essentially, in the constructions of parts and combinations, as set forth in the claims.

I11 the drawings, Figure 1 represents a side elevation of the combined device; Fig. 2, a.

similar view partially in section; Fig. 3, a side elevation of the device as a drill with the bed-plate and supplemental base added; Fig. 4, a cross-vertical section through the drillstandard; Fig. 5, a detail plan view of the supplemental pipe-jaws for the'vise; Fig. 6, a detail perspective of the supplemental bedplate for the drill, and Fig. 7 a longitudinal section through a form of base for the entire device.

The base A is shown in two forms. In the first form, as in Figs. 1, 2, 3, and 4, it is metallic and has a central slot, B, in the shape of an inverted T, extending longitudinally through nearly the entire length of the said base. The ends 0 of the base have bolts D pass through them when it is desirable to secure the device to a work-bench or other place.

The anvil E is provided with a serrated or toothed longitudinal flange, F, on the under side of the base thereof. The said anvil is supported by and slides longitudinally on the base A, the flange F resting within the slot B and having its teeth engage over a lateral pin or stop, G, within said slot. This flange and stop permit the adjustment of the anvil in one direction and prevent its movement in the opposite direction, if it be desirable. Through an extension of the anvil base passes a bolt, H, the head of which engages under the edges of the T-slot, and may be tightened sufficiently to prevent any movement whatever of the anvil.

The anvil is provided with the usual nose or beak, I, and has its rear extension, K, perform the office of the fixed jaw of a vise. On the anvil-base, immediately below the said fixed jaw K,a1'e two coincident upwardly-projectinglips, L, between which, when the drill isin use, rests the lower end of the upright bed-plateM, the upper end resting against the jaw K.

Upon a suitable plate, N, with a downwardly-projecting guide-pin, O, and a securingbolt, 1?, both resting within the slot B, is raised a post or standard, R, with an intermediate barrel, S, and an internallythreaded sleeve, T, on top, both sleeve and barrel being formed integral with the said standard. Within the barrel rests the guide-rod U of the movable jaw Y of the vise, the lower end of the said jaw resting on the base A and having aguiding-tongue, Z, projecting into the slot B. Through the sleeve T passes a hollow screw-shaft, A, white hand-wheel, B, on one end and containinga rod, 0, with a crank, D, at one end and a tool-head, E, at the other, said head engaging with the jaw Y. The screw-shaft operates to advance the movable jaw, and also feeds the drill when in operation.

In Fig. 3 the drill is shown in operation and has its standard mounted upon a supplemental base, F, which, to insure lightness, may be constructed of wood,and is used where more space is desirable than can be obtained from the device as in Figs. 1 and 2.

WVhen longitudinal space is desired, the an vil is removed and the bed-plate shown in Fig. 6 substituted. This consists of a plate, G, with an L-extension, H, for a base, and a downwardly projecting T shaped lug, I, which engages in the slot B. A bolt passing through one end of the base and engaging in said slot B will firmly retain said plate to the base A.

In Figs. 1 and 5 are shown the jaws for grasping pipes or rods. These consist of interlocking V-shaped and serrated jaws K with rearwardly continued flanges or wings L, which embrace the jaws of the vise. It is preferred to form the jaw fitting the fixed jaw of the vise with a perforated ear, M, which, when the jaw is in place, has the said perforation coinciding with the hardy-hole of the anvil, and is secured by abolt dropped therein.

in Iv preferred for some purposes.

'4 .is shown a form of base that is The main body of the said base is constructed of wood, as at N, and has a central slot, 0. On both top and bottom is a centrally-slotted metallic plate, P, held to the wooden block at the ends by bolts, which also secure to the under side of said base the strips R,which serve to raise the said base somewhat from any object on which it may rest-,and thus leave room enough for the heads of the bolts (shown in dotted lines) that secure the anvil and drill-standard to the said base.

Either orboth the anvil and drill-standard may be moved on the base or removed, if desirable.

1. The combined tool consisting of a slotted base, an anvil guided by said slot and adj ustable on said base, a standard, also adjustably guided on said base and carrying a feedingserew, and a movable vise-jaw guided by the base and by the standard, substantially as specified.

2. The combined tool consisting of a slotted base, an anvil adjustably guided on said base, a standard, also guided by said base, a feeding-screw on said standard, and a drillshaft and stock passing through said screw, substantially as specified.

3. The combined tool consisting of a slotted base, an anvil guided therein adjustably, an adjustably-guided standard carrying a feedscrew and drill-stock, and a movable jaw guided by said standard and bas substantially as specified.

4. The combination, with a slotted base, of an anvil adjustable thereon, an adjustable standard on said base and carrying a feedscrew, a movablejaw guided by the base and standard, and supplemental serrated jaws removably secured to the anvil and movable jaw, substantially as specified.

In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
